Situated between the peaks of Mendos (to
the North) and Eren (to the South), Babadag is 11 km to the SE of the
historic town of Fethiye. The mountain is rugged and mostly rocky with a
dramatic series of deep valleys and gullies. The rock type is mainly
porous limestone limiting surface water and streams, however in some
places water can be seen depending on the season, while the only
continuous stream is the one flowing through the steep Kidrak valley
on the SW side.
